    Whether you like it or not, Punjabi music has had a distinct impact on the Indian popular music scene, and how. While we have Badshah & Honey Singh on one end of the spectrum, we have quite a few artists, who make some really dope music as well as style statements in their music videos.

    These music videos really do stand out, not only because of how skilfully they’ve been shot but also because of their styling.

    We take a look at a few of the best styled Punjabi music videos, that legit serve some serious styling goals for men.

    1. Old Skool
    Prem Dhillon & Sidhu Moose Wala, both of them were impeccably dressed in this song. While Prem’s outfit was distinctly high-fashion in nature, Sidhu’s outfits consisted of athleisure, simple suitings, and one dope-looking ethnic wear. Sidhu, in particular, had a different level of swag altogether.
    2. Brown Munde
    Although for most of the song, we see AP Dhillon and his fellow singers in some form of uniform or safety jackets, the instances where they dress up are simply sublime. We see some of the best athleisure outfits in this song. Also, even when we see the singers in uniforms, they are seen wearing some really dope looking sneakers. 
    3. G.O.A.T
    Diljit Dosanjh looks like a proper baller in this music video. While we really love the tuxedo that he wore in this song, thanks to its silhouette and fit, we simply cannot ignore the athleisure outfits that Diljit wore in this song. He also accessorised the heck out of those outfits - harness, bum bags, watches, sneakers, chains - the man was just on fire. Then, there was that sweet-looking Gucci sweater that he had on. Just sublime.
    4. Lehanga
    Irrespective of what one thinks of the song, the reality is, it is one of the most viewed Punjabi music videos on YouTube. Jass Manak really showed us how to wear colours with utmost confidence. We seriously like the variety of prints that we see Manak wearing in the song. We have some dope-looking pieces from Versace, Dolce & Gabanna, and Gucci. Plus, there were some really tasteful streetwear outfits as well.
    5. Coka
    Sukh-e is one stylish fellow, and if you really want to see just one video where he’s at his stylistic best, then this is the music video that you should be watching. While some of his hairstyles maybe a little too OTT for you, you cannot deny his outfits were just amazing. We especially liked that kitschy denim jacket that he wore, right at the beginning of the video. It went really well with the rest of his all-white outfit.
    6. No Competition
    Here we have yet another number by Jass Manak, again, in which he can be seen wearing some really colourful jackets and shirts. His golden suit is a little OTT, but other than that, those are some pretty hip street outifts. Divine, as always, was just a class apart, when we speak of streetwear.
    Special Mention - Jine Mera Dil LutiyaThis is a song that we grew up listening to. Jazzy B & Apache Indian were the OG style gods of Punjabi music. Some of their earlier music videos really set the tone for the genre for a decade or so. This music video right here is a great example of just how elaborate the styling would often be in their videos.

    We rely on our smartphones for almost everything today. From scanning documents to communicating with friends and even finding dates. One of the more common uses of a smartphone is using navigation apps like Google Maps to get to a place we aren’t familiar with. That’s exactly what a man in Indonesia did to reach the wrong house and almost married the wrong woman.

    According to local media, the mix up happened yesterday where the man went to the same village where the wedding was supposed to take place but entered the wrong house where another wedding was taking place. The hosts welcomed the man and his family to the house and were offered refreshments. After conversations between family members, one of the bride’s family realised the mix-up and averted an embarrassing situation.

    There were two ceremonies taking place in the same village i.e. a wedding and an engagement which was the cause for the confusion. The bride, Ulfa was initially unaware of the situation as she was getting ready for her special day with a make-up artist. In fact, the video from the ceremony went viral where it showed the family leaving the premises with many gifts awkwardly.

    The groom and his family were supposed to reach  Losari Hamlet of Pakis District in central Java and were using Google Maps to find their way. However, the family turned up at a different venue called the Jengkol Hamlet which isn’t far from the original intended venue. The groom’s family realised their mistake and apologised to the bride’s family. The groom and his family were directed to the correct wedding venue with the help of Ulfa’s family. 

    Google Maps is widely considered the most accurate navigation app, however it has been known for mix-ups. Last year a man from a village in Tamil Nadu filed a complaint with the local police station as the app was showing places in his timeline he has never visited. The timeline feature uses points of interests rather than an accurate position to plot your activity. This caused marital problems for the man as his wife believed Google over anything else.
    What do you think about this mix-up caused by Google Maps? We could only imagine what would happen if the man actually had married the wrong woman because of Google Maps.

    There are certain rules set in every arena. The same is the case in the fashion world. There are some rules, which if followed in the right manner, can make you look sartorially well-versed at all hours. So here are some 7 of them that you should never ever bend but follow.
    1. When Wearing Polo T-shirts © iStock
    Polo T-shirts no doubt make one look fashionable but there's a way to wear them. Ensure the sleeve is not loose and doesn't look too long. It should end between three-quarters of your bicep and the middle.

    2. The Width Of A Bow-Tie © iStock
    There's a rule to follow when it comes to bow-ties as well. The size of the bow-tie matters. When wearing a bow-tie, check the width as it should match with the outer corners of your eyes. If the bow-tie is smaller, it will make your face look enlarged, whereas if it's big, it will make your face look smaller.

    3. Dress Shirt Collar Rule © Quora
    The collar of the dress shirt can make or break your look. An ideal collar touches the skin till the entire neck but doesn't press hard. If you are able to slide in two fingers in between the collar and your neck, then that's a well-fitted collar.

    The same goes for the shirt cuff. It should give you at least 1 to 1.5 inches of ease and you should be able to slip in two fingers through the cuff.
    4. Clothes For Short & Tall Men © Instagram/The Modest Man
    If you thought wearing baggy or ill-fitted clothes will define your frame, you are highly mistaken. If you are short in height, opt for high-rise pants along with a matching belt as it creates an illusion of height. Whereas, men who are tall can go for low-rise with contrasting belts.

    5. The Fit Of The Trousers © iStock
    The pleats on the trousers are also an important element. One rule to follow, especially if you have wider legs or thighs, is that you should opt for double pleated pants over single pleated ones. This ensures that the attention goes on the silhouette.

    6. Your Socks Matter © iStock
    You can play it safe, by matching the colour of your socks with the rest of your outfit, so it blends well. You can also experiment with prints and patterns, only if the formal setting calls for it. Just make sure you wear them long enough, and not display any skin while sitting.

    7. Check Your Underwear © iStock
    When it comes to underwear, the only two rules men should follow is that prints are not for you, if you are a grown-up and heavily branded underwears do not look good. Simple. The best style that has stood the test of time, are basic cotton boxer shorts. They are ideal ones to spend money on and are quite comfortable on the skin.

    The show Scam 1992 became an unexpected blockbuster hit and the show starred fairly new actors mostly.

    Pratik Gandhi played the role of Harshad Mehta in the series and became people’s favourite overnight. 
    The story of the show was loved by the audience but it was once again retold. The Big Bull, a film starring Abhishek Bachchan that tells the same story was released recently. The film also stars Samir Soni, Saurabh Shukla, and many more.
    View this post on InstagramIn an interview recently, Pratik Gandhi was asked what he thinks about Abhishek Bachchan’s portrayal of Harshad Mehta in the film and show’s comparison with his film. 
    He had the sassiest reply. He said, “There can’t be competition between actors. Had it been products, there would have been competition. If I was a biscuit or a soap, there would be competition.”
    He told IANS, “I am a human being. How can two people, looking so different and having distinct types of acting, be compared? I don’t take the pressure that your next thing has to be bigger than the previous one."
    Not only this, the Gujarati actor’s name is also included in Limca Book of Records for a monologue that he performed in three languages.

    According to Pratik Gandhi, the success of his series Scam 1992 is due to his steady rise as an actor. The success of the show also opened up how the show has opened up more opportunities. 
    He said, “I would convert this as excitement where people are giving me different opportunities now. They are open to working with me on different subjects — which is very exciting for me as an actor, and I am just looking forward to playing another character. So yeah, I don’t think that much. My theatre background is helping me here".

    When I asked my husband what he looks for in his undergarments, just to compare with my choices, he simply said ‘it should be comfortable’. It got me thinking how nothing really speaks comfort as much as boxers. So while I wanted to surprise him with something sexy, I had to factor in comfort too. 
     I scrolled through the XYXX website and picked 5 boxers from their newly launched SAVANNA collection. Made with 100% super-combed cotton, these boxers are ultra-soft and come with an anti-roll, microfibre waistband on the inside for a no-marks, comfortable stretch. The collection is inspired by the African Savanna grasslands and every boxer is a reflection of it.
     This limited-edition collection is hand-drawn and showcases the majestic inhabitants of the grasslands of the African Savanna, in all its glory. The interpretation of this is however reimagined by XYXX, true to its unique classy meets cool style, to mix the culture, shades and village folks of this incredibly diverse wildlife with this collection.   
     How many of these do you like?
    1. The Giraffe Breezy with subtle flair, this light coloured pair is the summer staple every wardrobe needs. Giraffe illustrations make their presence felt bringing a touch of the wild to our urban jungles.

    China is the first country in the world to issue blockchain-powered digital currency to its citizens where 750,000 recipients will be getting access via a lottery system. The digital currency is the digital version of China’s Yuan and citizens will be able to use the digital Yuan in stores and online using a dedicated app according to The Wall Street Journal.

    Digital payments are already quite common in China’s local economy where customers could pay for almost everything using apps like WeChat. However, now Chinese citizens will be able to pay using digital Yuans in stores like Starbucks and McDonald’s who are reportedly among some of the stores that are already accepting the digital Yuan. 

    Having said that, while the digital Yuan is powered by Blockchain, it has stark differences with cryptocurrency such as Bitcoin. Unlike cryptocurrencies, the digital Yuan can be traced to its users and will not offer anonymity. Users will be able to download and store their funds in digital wallets and use QR codes for payments. The digital Yuan will also work on existing app-based payment systems that are being used by companies like WeChat and AliPay. 
    While China is the first country to deploy a digital currency, many other nations and their central banks are also developing their own form of digital currency. Countries like the US, Sweden and The Bahamas are all developing digital currencies for their citizens to use. China’s digital Yuan will be far easier to use than traditional cryptocurrencies and work similarly to digital payments services that already exist.

    China launched the digital Yuan to eliminate the movement of cash in the country which has already seen a massive decline. While physical monies invested in banks for the long term will not be affected, banks will still have to deposit specific amounts with the Public Bank of China to avail the digital Yuan. 

    The digital Yuan has already seen trials in cities like Shenzhen and seven other major cities in China. The currency was tested with food delivery and ride-sharing apps. Chinese citizens can now also apply for the digital currency through their banks.
